More than 1000 partygoers called the Rossville rainforest home for three days as music and art enthusiasts converged for the annual Wallaby Creek Festival.
From rock music to sultry dance numbers and even poetry, performers from across the region took to the stage from 26-28 September, treating campers to a jam-packed weekend of passionate entertainment.
“It was a beautiful festival – the decorations, lights, and care Ori Albert-Mitchell put into the visual coordination really showed,” festival organiser Jen Midgley said.
“I was stoked. The medic and security teams from Brisbane and Cairns said it was the best-managed festival they had ever been to – shows what a bunch of dedicated arts and music enthusiasts can do.”
Festival highlights included the Cabaret Stage and Show on Friday night, local groups Hot Flushes and Bellahdi Babes, and the Poet’s Brekky.
Young festival goers also got their fair share of fun in the YouthSpace and children’s festival where they enjoyed a performance by Blue Tac, a Brisbane-based rock collective aimed at kids, as well as a variety of workshops and craft activities.
“The YouthSpace and children’s festival were well attended; both venues were extensive with so many things to do,” Jen said.
“Miss Rachel (Cunado) created an incredibly inviting space, providing lots of creativity, which resulted in plenty of treasures to take home for the kiddies.
“Many thanks to the wonderful people who volunteer their time to ensure it happens smoothly.”
